Shoes matter more than cameras

Cobblestones are uneven and slick when wet. Trainers with grip beat fashion flats. Heels are a hard no unless you enjoy suffering.

Tipping on free tours

Most guests tip €10–€20 per person; couples often €25–€35 total. Cash preferred — euros widely accepted. Tip at the end, directly to the guide. If the tour changed your trip, say so and tip accordingly.

Timing and booking

Book online even for free tours — capacity is limited. Morning tours beat summer heat. Winter tours need a warm layer; we still walk.

Mosque and church etiquette

Shoulders and knees covered in mosques. Quiet voices. No flash photography during prayer. Churches may charge small museum fees — carry a few marks.
